1) I first tired to install apache, php and mysql all in one command and it bombed out so I started doing it one at a time.
2) dont know I have seen others with simular error messages post on the web for slugs and non slugs but the answer has always been to run apt-get -f install and it fixes it. 3) Oddly enough I dont appear to have a file named ScreenSize.pm in that folder. Here is the contents of that folder. I have it two different formats because I know some folks see it better as a list than in columns.

So you've hit a very strange bug or file corruption resulting in strange behaviour or something like that. It would be very helpful to know a few things: 1) When and how did your problem start and do you see it when you install other packages as well? 2) Are there other people who hit the same bug when they install mysql-server-5.0? 3) What are the contents of your /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/ScreenSize.pm at lines 33 and 48? Do they match mine? (probably...) I installed etch before release and upgraded mysql-server alone several times. That's not the same as installing it cleanly. I have never encountered that bug, but that might say nothing at all... Luck, David > On 6/23/07, David Fokkema <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > Oops, off list.
